Frequently Asked Questions
You'll get a secure video link after scheduling. During the session, Dr. Lagasse watches how you move, asks targeted questions, and walks you through specific tests. Based on what he finds, he builds a personalized plan and shows you exercises with real-time feedback on your form.
It's convenient, cuts out travel time, gives you real-time exercise feedback, and supports ongoing recovery from home. Dr. Lagasse can also see your actual living or working space to spot things that may be making your condition worse. Many patients love being able to schedule around work or family and keep up with care even when traveling or during bad weather.
Yes, for many conditions. Research shows telehealth PT delivers results on par with in-person care for a wide range of musculoskeletal issues. While hands-on work isn't possible over video, Dr. Lagasse can teach you self-release techniques and guide your exercises visually. Telehealth focuses on the active side of PT (exercise, movement training, and education), which are major drivers of recovery. For some conditions, a mix of telehealth and in-person sessions works best.
It's ideal if you have a busy schedule, limited mobility, or live far from a clinic. Telehealth works especially well for posture issues, chronic pain, pre-surgical prep, post-surgical recovery (after the early phase), and ongoing check-ins. It's also great if you travel often or can't easily take time off work.
You'll need a device with a camera and microphone (phone, tablet, or computer), a solid internet connection, and about 6-8 feet of clear space to move around. Dr. Lagasse can suggest simple household items to use as exercise tools, like water bottles for weights or a towel for resistance. Before your first session, he'll help you set up your space.
As a cash-based practice, JointWorks PT gives you a superbill to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits. Many patients find the convenience, time savings, and personal attention make telehealth a great value. Pricing is competitive, and the initial consultation is free so we can figure out if telehealth is the right fit for you.
What Our Patients Say
Working with Steven was such a positive experience! He was incredibly responsive when I first contacted him about a knee injury; he saw me within just a couple days of my accident. I felt extremely supported the entire time we worked together. Due to his expertise and care, I was back to normal activities within a couple weeks of beginning my treatment program! I highly recommend!
